They are using flock cameras for way more than the stated usage. The cops are abusing this system already and it’s barely even implemented. Who voted for this?

On Friday, July 31st 2026 at 1:10 pm I was hit on my red motorcycle from behind on the corner of Market St and Wood Dr near Shiloh Road, next to the firehouse. The At-Fault driver was in a black Chevy Silverado. I was hit from behind while slowing down to make a turn. The driver and his insurance company are NOT accepting fault. If ANYBODY was there, please reach out. There were multiple witnesses that didnt stay at the scene. If your out there, please help! Thank you!

Im just super curious as to why they would change it since it has been “flaming” for as long as I’ve know about it

Feels like our rates are higher than the rest of DFW

I’ve been finding these random pokemon cards like in every store I go to, i’ve seen them while shopping at kroger or target and i’m wondering if anyone else has seen these mystery cards around😭 or am i the only one, and i’m just going crazy??

Has anyone else noticed that the Fedex drivers in Garland are now dropping off in the alleys instead of front porches now? I mean WTH?

I was just out walking my dog when I saw a man with a gun in the silhouette of a street light so I shouted at him what he was doing. It was a neighbor who has been complaining about the armadillos lately carrying a pellet rifle. He had just killed an armadillo and left it for dead on the sidewalk next to another neighbors yard. He tried pacifying me by claiming the animal had been in his yard then by saying he was just trying to scare it, not kill it. He also claimed it's our fault the armadillos are getting into the neighborhood (not sure about that).

Is this legal, to hunt them in our neighborhood like this? It is too close to my house for comfort. I'm not anti-gun or anti-hunting, but in my neighborhood? in someone else's yard?

Update: I went back to photograph the corpse but it was gone only a couple of small blood stains on the sidewalk, his yard smells extremely rotten the stench is strong walking by it. My guess is he's killed at least 3 or 4 armadillos now. I've decided to place game cameras in our area of the greenbelt and see if there's anything I can find that way to keep the armadillos from their property.

Hi, I'm working on a fan project set in the Fallout universe, covering the entirety of Texas. I'm currently working on potential settlements that could arise in the post-war area of Garland. My question is: in your opinion, what surviving districts/neighborhoods could attract local survivors, either because of an abundance of a certain resource, such as water or food, or because they have such a strong identity that they ABSOLUTELY need to be included as a settlement?

Thanks! ^^
